The British Open is just a couple of weeks away and the regional qualifying was held over the past weekend, which will lead to the final qualifying this week.
There are two ways of being able to tee it up in the 149th British Open -- you are an exempt player or you must try and qualify.
As always, 156 players will make up the field of the championship at Royal St George's in England, with the majority of them being exempted from qualifying.
The regional and final UK qualifying venues are Notts (Hollinwell), Prince's, St Annes, and West Lancashire.
Any amateur with a handicap index no higher than 0.4 and who pays the £150 entry fee can enter.
Four the 36-hole final qualifying events will be played at the same venues this week.
Around 1,074 players entered the 18-hole regional qualifying with 414 of them being amateurs.
Around 207 will go on to play a further 36 holes of stroke play.
An estimated 12 players will then be heading to the famous links course, located in the South-East and adjacent to a rather large water hazard.
Out of Bounds: Maurice Gerald Flitcroft was a British golfer and audacious hoaxer. Flitcroft became notorious after hitting a score of 121 in the qualifying competition for the 1976 British Open -- the highest score recorded by anyone trying to play in the British Open.
